When an unassuming high school chemistry teacher discovers he has a rare form of lung cancer, he decides to team up with a former student and create a top of the line crystal meth in a used RV, to provide for his family once he is gone.
There are TV series that entertain us, and then there are those that simply captivate us. 'Suits' falls squarely into the latter category. This American legal drama is not just another show about lawyers - it’s a masterful blend of comedy, drama, and riveting storytelling that revolves around unlikely alliances, memorable characters, and high-stakes court battles.
Set in the heart of New York City, 'Suits' introduces us to Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), a gifted college dropout with a photographic memory who finds himself working for Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), one of the city's top lawyers. Despite never attending law school, Mike becomes an associate at Harvey's prestigious firm due to his raw talent and unique abilities. As they navigate through intense courtroom showdowns and power struggles within their own firm, Harvey and Mike form an unbeatable team reminding viewers why they love law dramas in the first place.
What sets 'Suits' apart from other shows in its genre is its brilliant ensemble cast. Gabriel Macht delivers a convincing performance as the sharp-witted Harvey Specter while Patrick J. Adams shines as the unconventional genius Mike Ross. The chemistry between these two leads is palpable throughout all nine seasons of the show. Supporting characters like Donna Paulsen (Sarah Rafferty) – Harvey’s secretary who often appears more competent than any lawyer at the firm – Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman) – an eccentric partner at the firm whose neurotic tendencies provide many comic relief moments – Rachel Zane (Meghan Markle) – a paralegal with high ambitions, and Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres) – the firm's strong-willed managing partner, add depth and diversity to the storyline.
